Cabinetry for Beginners - Auckland (Tues Eve Series) Nov 2026

This workshop is one of the next steps after completing our Introduction to Woodwork. Alongside our Carpentry for Beginners, it’s one of the pathways we offer to continue building your skills. Cabinetry focuses on designing and building interior fittings such as furniture.

In this workshop, you’ll learn to design and build a simple piece of furniture to take home and admire forever. Using basic cabinetry techniques and materials you will learn a design that can be adapted to create something for yourself such as a bedside table, a stool, a laptop table or a kid’s desk.

It is an opportunity to be creative whilst learning and embedding cutting, joining and assembling skills, in a supportive and friendly women-only environment at our exclusive Auckland workshop.  Tools and machinery available to use include the track saw, dropsaw, benchsaw, jigsaw, drill press, electric and hand planes, sanders, etc.

If you have some previous experience with power-tools we still strongly recommend doing our Introduction to Woodwork first to hone basic skills and confidence working with the power-tools and machinery used in this workshop.
